vegetable/ravioli soup!
All the vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, snap peas, green beans, carrots,
dehydrated mushrooms and bell peppers, and celery) went into the Crock Pot and
the chicken stock and seasonings. 3 hours on high.
Then I added in a can of cheese sauce and a can of cream of potato soup...
stirred will and added in the ravioli... cooked on high for an additional hour.
SUPER SOUP! Loved it!!!
Got leftovers. Yeah!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Hump Day. Ciao.

National Fritters Day
Before you can begin to celebrate this very important day, you need to know
what a "fritter" is. Many people do not know, making it all the more fun to eat
your first fritter today. A fritter is a fried cake or dough with fruit or meats
inside.
Whatever you do, do not fritter this day away without eating at least one
fritter.
Happy National Fritters Day!
